DSI Tyres step up manufacturing capacity by 60%
DSI Tyres Company, the pioneer and leader in the tyre world, has through constant innovation and research, introduced high quality products and increased its manufacturing and production capacity by 60%.
The company assured that it constantly aims to make the customers’ driving experience a smooth and convenient one. It has a 60% stake in the motorcycle tyres market and a 55% hold in the three-wheeler tyres market, thereby becoming the market leader.
In the past, deaths due to motor vehicle accidents in Sri Lanka increased rapidly (in 2019, there were 2,839 deaths). Most of the deaths were due to motorcycle related accidents at night (in 2019, there were 1,162 such deaths).
Providing a solution to this, DSI Tyres Company, by using new technology, introduced the Gen X motorcycle tyre which was manufactured and produced according to scientific research, to contain a special pattern of cut grooves.
This tyre has also been manufactured and produced with a Neon Effect that allows for the driver to be identified easily at night. It’s carbon silicon composition ratio creates a low friction effect on the tyre and allows for better fuel savings.
Targeting long distance travel, in addition to motorcycle tyres with the Xtreme tread design, FZ Bikes and Scooter Bikes have been fitted with a variety of tyres. DSI also introduced Sri Lanka’s first tubeless tyre for three-wheelers named “Kadisara”.
DSI Tyres are exported to over 80 countries world-wide, and in the future, they expect to increase the manufacturing and production capacity to increase exports further.
At the SLIM Brand Excellence awards ceremony, DSI Tyres was awarded the “Turnaround Brand of the Year-2019 award” along with many other export- related awards.
